Comedian **Joe Lycett** is hosting a big, queer Christmas house party, live from his Birmingham hometown for **Channel 4**. The 90-minute festival special, **Mummy’s Big Christmas Do!**, will feature special guests, musical performances, stand-up comedy, drag performers, and LGBTQ+ icons, celebrating all things queer.

In a Twitter post, Joe explained that they also want the audience to *“be populated with amazing talents, astonishing outfits and brilliant stories for the queer community in Birmingham and beyond”.* People are invited to email [mummy@joelycett.com](mailto:mummy@joelycett.com) with their stories, details, and photos if they were interested in being involved.

In a press release for Channel 4, Joe said: *“This show combines three of my favourite things – LGBTQ+ culture, Birmingham and chaotic live television. Queer creativity outside of London is the most exciting it has been in years and I can’t wait to introduce Channel 4 viewers to our colourful and anarchic world, with some silliness and a few laughs thrown in.”*

**Steven Handley**, commissioning editor for entertainment at Channel 4, added: *“After last year’s dreadful Christmas, I’m thrilled that Joe will be bringing back the yuletide lolz with a big queer party full of Ho, Ho, Huns LIVE from his hometown of Birmingham. With a smorgasbord of campery and Joe’s trademark mischief, it’s going to be the anarchic festive treat we all need!”*
